For this year's conference, we are inviting papers for the following sub-domains:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping how organizations manage and measure their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance and their contributions to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This sub-domain invites papers that explore the application of AI across diverse areas of impact management - from automating social impact measurement and enhancing ESG risk prediction, to leveraging natural language processing for sustainability reporting and integrating remote sensing for environmental monitoring. We particularly welcome research that examines the integration of AI with social impact measurement frameworks, stakeholder engagement strategies, and real-time SDGs impact data. Topics such as AI-enabled ESG data platforms, fairness and bias in impact modeling, and comparative evaluation of ESG scoring tools are also of interest. Both theoretical and applied research, including interdisciplinary approaches that bridge data science, sustainability, governance, and ethics, are encouraged. We seek contributions that advance responsible, data-driven innovation for more impactful ESG and SDG outcomes.
Topics for Submission
We welcome a broad range of research articles, case studies, conceptual papers, and literature reviews related to this sub-domain. Submissions may include, but are not limited to, the following topics:

Amid increasingly frequent and severe extreme weather and disaster events, artificial intelligence (AI) holds potential for advancing disaster risk governance. AI-assisted disaster management enhances the timeliness and accuracy of early warning, optimizes resource allocation, strengthens risk communication, and supports data-driven decisions and policies. In the context of climate change, it is essential to explore how AI can foster greater societal resilience to disaster risks through diverse perspectives and interdisciplinary integration.
This sub-theme, “AI for Disaster Resilience,” addresses all phases of disaster governance—from risk assessment and early warning to emergency response and post-disaster recovery. We invite scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to examine how AI can be integrated with geographic information systems (GIS), remote sensing, social engagement, and local knowledge to promote more inclusive, equitable, and forward-looking resilience strategies. We welcome submissions presenting innovative applications, theoretical developments, empirical studies, and policy recommendations that advance the role of AI in disaster risk reduction and resilience for a sustainable future.
Topics for Submission
We welcome a wide range of submissions related to AI applications in disaster risk reduction and resilience, including research articles, case studies, conceptual papers, and commentaries. Contributions may explore practical cases and innovative applications where AI and other emerging technologies are integrated into disaster risk governance. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
AI for Disaster Forecasting and Early Warning: Use of machine learning and deep learning to enhance the accuracy and timeliness of forecasts for hazards such as typhoons, earthquakes, and landslides, strengthening pre-disaster warning capabilities.
AI-Assisted Risk and Vulnerability Assessment: Application of AI to analyze spatial data (e.g., satellite imagery, topography, land use) to improve the identification of high-risk and vulnerable areas.
AI for Optimizing Emergency Response and Resource Allocation: Leveraging AI for real-time optimization of emergency logistics, including resource distribution, shelter planning, and traffic control, to enhance response efficiency.
AI in Disaster Monitoring and Information Extraction: Integration of natural language processing and image recognition to extract information from social media, citizen reports, and other sources, supporting real-time disaster detection and public sentiment analysis.
AI for Damage Assessment and Post-Disaster Recovery: Use of AI to support post-disaster recovery, including analysis of building damage and restoration of critical infrastructure, to enhance recovery planning and resilience.
AI-Enhanced Local Knowledge for Disaster Risk Reduction: Exploration of how AI can complement local knowledge to strengthen community risk perception, collective action, and people-centered resilience practices.
